"My uncle just had finished his project on the house, so I asked him how was the experience with the contractor and he said it went really good! I contacted Alter Construction and explained in few words about the project. Cynthia asked the right questions and when Eli came he already had all the information. Now that everyone is working from home I had to have a dedicated office. Eli asked if we had an architect or an engineer, we didn’t so he provided those services as well. The nice thing was that we could see the final design and the materials even before we started the project. Me and my wife are working all day from home and taking care of the kids, I just didn’t had the time to manage the project. So that was a such a huge relief to be able to trust them with that. This was our first project and for us it was really big, and they took all our worries away! The communication was exceptional, considering we are always busy from meeting to meeting, so the only way to communicate was through emails or late evening meeting. They adapt to our necessities. I’ve worked with many people before and Eli definitely set the bar high up with work quality, availability and most importantly, honesty. We will definitely keep recommending Alter Construction to our family and friends!"

"This project took considerably longer than the company originally estimated; and, within weeks of completion, two plumbing issues occurred that required some of the work to be redone. During the design phase, the architect went on vacation. While the estimated project completion was not impacted (the estimate did not include the design phase), it did lengthen the time we'd allotted to have the project completed. Also, during the project, there appeared to be a problem between the company's project manager and at least two of the subcontractors. During the shower "tiling phase", the company's "project manager" actually did some of the tiling work himself. The work was then transferred to a subcontractor. In fact, we are pleased with the final product; however, a minor plumbing issue (behind the tile) remains that we have not had corrected. Further, prior to the tiling phase, Austin Handyman referred us to several local sources from which to chose the specific tile we wanted. After visiting all locations, we selected tile from one. As the actual date for the tiling approached and we were well passed our target completion date, I agreed and picked up the tile and associated work material, transported it to the house, and staged it for use by the tiling subcontractor. Had I not done this, the project would have been further delayed. Also, the company subcontracted out the glass work associated with the shower. Again, we are well pleased with the final product; but, the subcontractor had to be recalled to correct a leak/leaks. A final annoying fact was that Austin Handyman sent us a final invoice for payment prior to the work actually being completed. When I called the company, the billing department was unaware that the project wasn't done. The company apologized and retracted the billing statement; but, I didn't feel it was professional for the billing department to not confirm work completion before sending out the final notice. Please note, this work was done during 2014, nearly three years ago. While we are generally pleased with the final outcome, we have deferred other renovation work due to the challenges we faced with this project."

"William, Carl and thier crew are first rate. The quality of thier work is incredible. They are accomodating, professional, and are very fair with their pricing. The construction quality was so good on my bungalo that was built a year and a half ago, I decided to have the patio enclosed as well which was recently completed. I have braging rights in my neighborhood now. Very soon they will be replacing all th exterior of my home with "Hardywood" and painting. Please include these folks a try with you bidding process.I am very happy I found them. Joseph S."

"Luis is the best general contractor I've worked with overall. We completely remodeled our master, and added a completely new guest bathroom. Aside from a few scheduling challenges and some details, all the work was carried out to high standards and specifications. LTE did not cut any corners, and on several occasions Luis went out of his way to rework items until they met or exceeded expectations. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat, and would recommend him for any construction work."

Customers say: Quality work

"Working with Safe Space Construction was pretty much stellar. Steve consulted with us about what we wanted, made a few suggestions, and gave us estimates for different materials (along with info about the pros and cons of each). The crew came and demolished the old, rotten deck in surprisingly little time, and proceeded to build the new, improved deck. They are all very skilled, and both courteous and personable. We're very happy with the result, and can't wait to start entertaining out there!"

"After they tore out the old limestone fireplace and installed the new firebox with a four stair blower system, they ran vents to several rooms in our home. That work included some framing, sheet rock patching and painting."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Yes, such as using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient designs for long-term savings.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
